FAQ

What sets Monkee’s business model apart from other franchise opportunities?

Small Footprint: Having a small footprint of only 1,500 to 1,800 square feet is much easier to manage and operate, and requires less build-out cost, less employees and less rent.

Minimal Employees: A typical Monkee’s boutique shop can be operated with only 3-5 employees.

Strong Quality of Life: No Nights! Our Shops are typically open 10am-6pm Monday-Saturday and 1pm to 5pm on Sunday.

Strong Earnings: You will be very impressed with our earnings claim (Item 19).

Ability to Attract Quality Staff: We are able to attract a much more quality employee versus the typical franchise like a restaurant, etc.

Will I receive a Protected Territory?

Yes. Most franchise companies typically offer their franchisees only a 3-mile to 5-mile protected territory. We offer our Monkee’s franchisees HUGE protected territories. You will receive a 10-mile protected territory!

What financing options are available?

Many alternatives are available to franchisees from SBA loans, conventional loans to leveraging your retirement savings.

How much time per year is spent going to markets for inventory buys?

We recommend attending 4-6 markets per year. Some franchisees do more or less depending on their inventory levels. There are several major markets each year that we encourage our franchisees to attend. As part of the Monkee’s Franchise System, our franchisees receive a complete Market Calendar.

Can my boutique sell lines that are not carried by all Monkee's?

Yes! We understand that buying trends vary by market and encourage our franchisees to purchase merchandise that will sell successfully within their market. We have an Approved Vendor Process that is required for all vendors that are not currently on the Approved Vendor List.
